The Red Deer Rebels are counting on the Luck of the Irish to help raise money for a great cause.

When the Rebels take on the Swift Current on Friday, March 17, at the Peavey Mart Centrium, they'll do so while wearing limited edition "St. Patrick's Day" themed jerseys.

The black jersey features an Irish tartan pattern on the shoulders, Gaelic name and number font, and a green Rebels 'R' overtop a four-leaf clover.

The jersey auction will be conducted in-person at the Peavey Mart Centrium during Friday's game.

Also, three jerseys worn by Jace Isley, Ben King and Kai Uchacz will be available through online auction. A link for the auction can be found here (www.32auctions.com/RDRStPats). It will open at 9 a.m. on Friday, March 17 and close at 4 p.m. on Wednesday, March 22.

Proceeds from the jerseys go to support the Rebels Foundation for Education and Wellness.

Tickets for Friday's game (7 p.m.) can be purchased through Tickets Alberta.
